Philosophy
The mission of RW Wealth Management Group is to provide a holistic, strategic approach to managing your financial life so your plan is appropriate for the various stages of your life. This has been Rosalyn Baker’s approach as a financial services professional, since 1983. By developing long-term, intimate relationships with clients, she has helped them enhance and protect their wealth even during challenging markets and life transitions.
Rosalyn adheres to the fiduciary standard. Whether or not you’re familiar with the term fiduciary, all you really need to know is that it means she acts in your best interests – always. When recommending securities and other investment products, she is completely independent and objective.
The Hands
When visiting with prospective clients, once Rosalyn has gotten an overview of their current finances, she explains that the fundamental questions about their financial future are like the fingers on her hand:
- What do you want to accomplish?
- What is your timeline?
- What is your situation in terms of children and elderly parents?
- When do you want to retire?
- Do you have your affairs in order (i.e., do you have a will, etc.)?
These five questions are easy to understand and remember, and they help clients clarify their goals and establish priorities. The answers form the foundation of the financial plan.
When it comes to discussing investments, Rosalyn returns to the hand, explaining that there are five elements to consider:
- Cash and liquidity
- Fixed income
- Stocks
- Real estate
- Other investments
It’s simple, really. Two hands, ten fingers and a manageable way for clients to understand the approach to their financial well-being.
